Over the last couple nights I decided to scratch a personal programming itch. A little XDP program that logs the SNI from any TLS client hello it sees. No TLS needed.

"never seen anything like this with modern accounting rules"
"Oracle didn’t disclose that “the vast majority of its $318bn RPO growth in the quarter came from a $300bn contract with OpenAI.”"
That's a lot of future revenue from a single, privately owned customer.

I bought an Nvidia BlueField2 off ebay. If I console into it over rshim (github.com/Mellanox/rsh...) it's got the hostname "nic-ec2-node11-lax02 " without default username and password. What are the odds this is from an AWS EC2 machine?

Lost sleep last night because my brain started think about how Nat Friedman and others of the Microsoft/GitHub exec team back in 2020 tried to explain away our complains/questions with mealy mouthed responses about how the ICE/DHS contract would improve outcomes. www.vice.com/en/article/w...

I'd bet a dollar that if during the "homework" part of the sw eng interview you asked a candidate to write a tech doc intended for a formal design review process instead of some sort of brain teaser you'd end up finding people that think more clearly, work w/ others better & can still write code.
